No shite Sherlock. Like some one going into their territory.

Pitts attack unprovoked and are by far the breed most represented in fatalities.
They're also the most common of breeds capable of doing damage. The Doberman, German shepherds, Rottweilers even the rare Press Canario along with other Mastiff breeds are lumped in as "dangerous breeds."
I remember years ago a guy got bite by dog requiring medical attention. He called the local news and reported it. For 3 days no one came but when he called and said it was a pit, he had several interviews that day. Says a lot right there.

What is your stance on gun laws? Just curious.

My personal rule: Never own a pet I can't physically beat.
I have been attacked twice in my life by dogs, both happen to be German Shepherds. Both attacks were unprovoked.

I wonder if those dogs were really APBT's or just a mongrel dog with some sort of bulldog in it?
Posted on 10/22/17 at 1:10 pm to BobRoss
Agreed. The only thing worse than a pitbull is the low-functioning tattooed owner.

Pitt bulls should be driven to extinction.

So the most popular dog breed (by far) leads in the number of dog bite? Now which breed leads in fatal bites? I’ll give you a hint it’s not the lab and it accounts for over 70% of fatal bites. I bet you could guess which breed it is.

There is no indication the child wasn’t welcome or expected in that yard. Heck, could have even lived there. Not enough info in the article to blame the kid or his parents.

Pits and pit mixes are estimated to be over 5 million. They're also some of the most abused breed. People banning pits are no different than any other person looking to ban other breeds they deem "dangerous" just like the craze for BSL against shepherds, Rottweilers, Bull mastiffs and so forth in previous decades.

The hell there wasn't. He's dead.
I don't care if his baseball went over the fence, people have fences for a reason.

I will pose the question again...
What reason is it too allow this breed to keep existing?
There is nothing that this breed does that cannot be performed by another breed.
If this was any other product it would be discontinued for safety reasons.
It is time to spay and neuter this breed into extinction.

No, but they could. It is also very likely that a Doberman, rottweiler, or many other breeds would in this sort of instance. I'm not condoning any of what happened, but I also don't let my 8 year old play outside without supervision. Sometimes it may be that someone has a fenced in yard with not so friendly dogs as a security measure to keep others out.

What if he was going over to play with a kid who lived there? What if he was a relative? The fact the dogs killed him only indicates the dogs killed him.

Not logical.
The article describes a woman yelling for help and hitting the dogs with a stick.
quote:
One neighbor says he ran outside when he heard a woman frantically screaming for help. “This lady was in there and she’s hitting the dogs with a stick,” the man told WBZ-TV. “The dogs wouldn’t let go of the kid they were dragging him around like a rag doll.”
Could have been the kids caretaker who was watching him enter the yard to go somewhere he usually went. It’s not illogical, there is not enough info for it to be logical or illogical. All I’m saying is people are jumping to conclusions without much info.

First thing that went through my head was that they are blaming the dog but the kid was in their yard. It is awful to lose a kid I'm sure but where were the parents to watch the kid?
